Revisiting portraiture

Now that I have some more time to devote to pastel work, I've been able to create some portraits of my own family and pets. The first is of one of our Australian shepherds, who is a beautiful  black tri-color. The other portrait is of my husband Brian from a trip we took to Martha's Vineyard last spring. Both are soft pastel on toned paper. Enjoy!
